When I run "make install" everything behaves as I expect. However when I actually execute "xt5250 PGHILLBA" (I have PGHILLBA defined in ~/.tn5250rc) I get an error message telling me: error while loading shared libraries: lib5250.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory If I manually move lib5250.so.0 and lib5250.so.0.0.0 from /usr/local/lib to /usr/lib/ I no longer get that error message and xt5250 works. On another machine that has tn5250 installed via the Ubuntu repositories I find that lib5250.so.0 and lib5250.so.0.0.0 are installed in /usr/lib/tn5250. Oddly enough, if I create a /usr/lib/tn5250 directory on my initial machine and move lib5250.so.0 and lib5250.so.0.0.0 from /usr/lib/ to /usr/lib/tn5250 xt5250 stops working. I don't get an error message, I see a brief flash when it opens a new terminal window which closes immediately and leaves me at the command line. I have no idea if this is the kind of problem you're talking about James and Scott or if you're just meaning the configure/make part of the process. I appreciate the time and effort you two and everyone else has put into tn5250!
